Lauren Baideme - LIS 629, Module 5 How could students benefit from social bookmarking? Social bookmarking opens up possibilities for collaboration, communication, connection and reflection. I think one of the biggest benefits is that students can classify information in a way that is useful for them personally, rather than based on a preset hierarchy. By using and browsing personal tags, they increase the likelihood that they will be able to revisit the information they found the first time, and also organize it in a way that makes sense to them, and will make sense to their classmates. They can also add comments/notes/links to tagged articles and websites to qualify their information in one place, rather than just store it. [amen] lc
Reflections on Chapters 3-5 in the Berger text to come shortly.
